Reminiscent of Joshua Chamberlain at Little Round Top.

COL Chamberlain in his memoirs said that when we held after the final attack, the total amount of ammo that we had was about 10 rounds for the rifles & a few rounds in officer’s pistols. - He then said, “It was a near thing.”

Josh Chamberlain was a GREAT officer & a GOOD Christian, who fought for the wrong side in TWBTS.
